    Hello folks, I inherited this table cloth from my mother's estate. She may have inherited it from my grandmother.
    Time perspective = my mother would have been 98 this past July.
    Any info you folks could glean from pics would be appreciated.

    My grandmother could have made that, and did do similar work. All women did at one point, especially once sitting and listening to a radio by electric light became normal. My guess is it was really meant as a fancy bed covering.
